Use a pony for the earth anchor, just make him do circles. I'm pretty sure it will faster than the impact wrench :)). Jokes aside now. I'm impressed for all the details, going back and forth with the sewing... Just wow!
You can try to sew the sleeve with the wire rope in it, but I think it will be too stiff to control the sewing. In my opinion, it should not be inserted while you sew the sleeve. I do not recommend reducing the hallow, it still needs to push against the hallowed edge to tension the sail.
You guys are totally awesome when it comes to these projects you always use top of the line the best of high quality materials whether it's the fabric or any of the other parts to make any of your projects. I wish I had some extra money to buy one of your machines 🥺
Hi, We have only developed applications for four sided and three sided sail shades, I am not aware of any other calculators outside of ours. www.fabric-calculator.com/sail-shades.aspx
This company has no equal with the support of its products and customers; I have the utmost respect for all of their doings I had a Sailrite Ultrafeed LSZ machine (and a VERY similar Consew CP 146R) ; both were very nice little machines; however I often found that I was limited by the small amount of foot lift, the short arms and lower torque that these machines had. After many years of owning all manner of "budget" type machines both large and small; I finally upgraded to REAL industrial type machines a few years ago and have never regretted it. My current straight stitch machine is a Juki 1508NH and my Zig Zag machine is a Consew 146RB (both purchased used for half of retail) I also have a "monster" Cobra long arm class 4 (Juki 441 clone) but I rarely have a project that requires its super heavy duty abilities. My point is that if you enjoy making things and plan on doing it for the foreseeable future; you should get top quality machine tools whenever possible.
Thank you for sharing your experience and insights! It's always great to hear about the journey of fellow creators and the tools they use to bring their ideas to life.
1:16:35 Black-colored UV-resistant heat shrink is an excellent material to cover the dead end of the aircraft wire/galvanized wire rope, preventing fraying wire ends. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) heat shrink is an excellent consideration. I made a shade sail several years ago using quality Sailrite products - a magnificent addition to my backyard; offering shade, rain and snow protection and has held up very well after 6 years.
This has to be the best video on net for our trade, well done guys, so detailed, brilliant stuff.
Thank you for your kind words! We put a lot of effort into making our videos informative and detailed.
Unbelievable Eric . Beautiful ❤

Glad you liked it!
Why don’t you sew cable in hem saving a step? And with cable can’t the hallow be a lot less?

Hello, I loved that fabric calculator. Do you know of any programs that focus only on shade sails? for multiple shapes?

Excellent suggestion! Thanks for buying your supplies from Sailrite!
Couldn't you use Dyneema (or such) vs. steel wire/rope???
Yes, if you wanted to use Dyneema vs. Stainless Steel Wire Rope I guess you can do that.
Nice
How much it cost???
Seems like it's depending how much you need. For the specific spot you want
